Conceptual Physics

The morning bus ride. Your daily workout. Opening a door. A Sunday watching your favorite sport. There's not a moment that goes by that physics isn't playing a part in our daily lives. With an appreciation of real-life examples, Conceptual Physics by Hewitt helps students identify the physics around them. Incorporating digital media and learning tools, Conceptual Physics covers topline concepts such as mechanics, properties of matter, heat, sound, light, nuclear physics, and relativity. Conceptual Physics has been a benchmark physics text for more than 40 years - and for good reason. It's a captivating and accessible read for non-science majors, as well as being a go-to resource for physics majors and other science students.

MasteringPhysicsis not a self-paced technology and should only be purchased when required by an instructor.Conceptual Physics with MasteringPhysics, Twelfth Edition Paul
Hewitt integrates a compelling text and the most advanced media to make
physics interesting, understandable, and relevant for non-science
majors. The Twelfth Edition will delight you with informative and
fun Hewitt-Drew-It screencasts, updated content, applications, and new
learning activities in MasteringPhysics.

Hewitt’s
text is guided by the principle of ''concepts before calculations'' is
famous for engaging students with analogies and imagery from the
real-world that build a strong conceptual understanding of physical
principles ranging from classical mechanics to modern physics.

This program presents a better teaching and learning experience–for you.

Personalize learning with MasteringPhysics: MasteringPhysics
provides you with engaging experiences that coach you through physics
with specific wrong-answer feedback, hints, and a huge variety of
educationally effective content.

Prepare for lecture: NEW! 100 Hewitt-Drew-It screencasts,
authored and narrated by Paul Hewitt, explain physics concepts through
animation and narration. The exciting new Screencasts, accessed through
QR codes in the textbook, will enable you to engage with the physics
concepts more actively outside of class.

Make physics delightful: Relevant
and accessible narrative, analogies from real-world situations, and
simple representations of the underlying mathematical relationships make
physics more appealing.
